My take on the book

Review

>A book that will touch your heart. Will give you idea of something that you would want to do for your daughter(s) when you leave them behind.>A mother’s heart tore open and laid in front of the daughters, separately, to cherish the thoughts and words their mother wanted them to know of.

>The book has passing on of woman wisdom, sharing of girly secrets, revealing of dark life patches, and expressing the deep love that a mother can hold in her heart for her daughters.

>The book will take you through the emotions, you’ll smile, feel sentimental and will make you cry, at least it did this to me, especially towards the end of it, when Mark raises toast for Lisa & Andy!

>It is a simple, written-from-heart book. Noble has crafted all the characters very well and they go absolutely well with the story line.

>I would not say I loved the book, like I’ve read the raving reviews and heard from friends about it, but I would say it is a good book, one should read sometime in her life.

>I also felt that the book could have been organized a little more than it is now. The slicing of chapters and the flow of story could have looked better than this, although this doesn’t mean right now it is crap,eh!

>Nevertheless, a heart warming, mother to daughter, sister to sister and most importantly a woman to woman book!

>Leaving you with the best part of the entire book:

Do not stand at my grave n weepI’m not there I do not sleepI’m a thousand winds that blowI’m the diamond light on snowI’m the sunlight on the ripened grainI’m the gently falling autumn rainWhen u wake in the morning hushI’m the swift up lighting rushOf quite birds in circling lightI’m the soft star at nightDo not stand at my grave and cryI’m not there I did not die!!!

Actually, I have read most of Elizabeth Noble’s books. Would recommend Alphabet Weekends (a light, fun read) and The Girl Next Door (light, but thought-provoking, one of my favourite books of all times). Do give them a shot!
